We have the pleasure to offer as a novelty to the web navigators the fresco of the Greek Chapel in the Priscilla Catacomb, dating back to the second half of the II° century A.C.

A woman (with veiled head) together with men (with bare head) concelebrates Eucharist.

In this image, the woman is marked with an arrow.
